Bulma asks Whis if he's stronger than Beerus, and he says something like "well, I wonder about that?".
Oh Jesus Christ! Now we don't even know that for sure in Super. I just..I can't even...
We already have people saying Beerus used around 10% of his full power to one shot a .5% Rageta and somehow still less then SSBxkkx10.

The Beerus scale literally broken top to bottom.

That doesn't mean anything. He was pissed and people say things they don't mean all the time when they're pissed.

Did you trust Yamcha when he said he's the strongest fighter on the boat in Episode 6?

No he couldn't. Champa openly stated Tokitoboshi is no match for God of Destruction. If Hit could beat Champa, he would've done so, no need to enter the tournament. He could do a robbery with ease

Image

If you think Champa is bragging, remember Toriyama's interview again. And again. Until you never forget

Beerus openly challenged Goku to fight Hakaishin, if nobody noticed

Image

Quoting the interview again, for those who don't have the best memory
Toyotarō:
… I get the feeling I’ve just heard something amazing (laughs). Lord Beerus and Whis turn up in Dragon Ball Super, and have become an unsurpassable wall for Goku and the gang. What do the two of them mean to you?

Toriyama:
Well… First off, right now I don’t have any plans for Goku and Vegeta to surpass Beerus and Whis.

What do you mean it doesn't mean anything? It mean what its exactly supposed to mean: Hit's Time-Skip ability doesn't mean shit to Champa, he'll still kill Hit.

He didn't mean "Tokitobashi is no match for me!" because he was pissed and he wanted to kill Hit for losing. It's like when, say, I told my mom "I'm going to kill you!" for breaking my Wii U and don't end up doing it.

Tokitobashi is really cheap and there are no counters to it. Logically, Champa wouldn't have been able to do anything at all to Hit. Doesn't matter if Champa is stronger than Hit. Tokitobashi is OP as hell.

Watch the battle more carefully. Yes, that was the 0.1 second one, and only after watching Vegeta get owned. He didn't figure out how to counter the 0.2 one in time, and then it improved to 0.5 seconds before he could even figure it out. That's why he had to use Kaioken to begin with.

Champa wouldn't have been able to do anything against Hit's constantly improved Tokitobashi which is over 0.5 seconds long as of Episode 40. Also 0.5 seconds is too long for Tokitobashi to be countered the way Goku did it regardless.

Doesn't matter how powerful Champa is if the technique is too good.

Except it matters, that's why Hit was promised to have the Cube. If it didn't matter, Champa would be dead and Hit would run away with the Cube. Forget the tournament, why would Hit fight for somebody he can beat? Logic

He can't beat Vados. Logic

Also I doubt 0.1 Tokitobashi Hit could defeat Champa. 0.5 though.. probably.

What makes you think he can't beat Vados if he could beat Champa? Vados hasn't shown resistance to time stop

Why can't he beat Vados? I the Time-Skip ability is as OP as you believe than he can really take on and kill anyone, since there is no way to counter it, according to you, even though Goku found a way to counter it several times.

After many weeks of careful calculations, fact checking and several pounds of considerable cocaine, I have come to the only logical power hierarchy possible for Dragon Ball Super as of episode 40:
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Given that Whis and Vados can also control time, I think Tokitobashi might not work on them. Alternatively, they could figure out Hit's movements by going back in time whenever they were attacked, so that eventually they could figure out the perfect way to outpredict and defeat Hit.

Goku can counter 0.1 Tokitobashi. There is absolutely no evidence that he can counter 0.5 or better (he wasn't able to, actually).

Time stop has nothing to do with time reversal. It's like saying Superman is immune to time-stop because he can time travel. Different application of time. Hit could kill Vados even before she attempted to reverse time, by your logic

So basically nothing indicates that Whis > Beerus in the DbS Anime.

I'd like to give you some friendly advice: please don't accuse others of being illogical when your own posts are incredibly poorly thought out. You say that Hit should be able to steal the cube by defeating Champa. And this is supposed to be a problem with my argument. You conveniently forget that Vados exists, which is hilarious. I'm not trying to insult you here or be rude, but please think more carefully before you post from now on. I want to have a good argument; I don't want to make trivial arguments which are obvious to everyone in the world.

Dragonball logic is different from real life logic. Tokitobashi didn't work on SSB x10 Goku because Goku was "too strong" for it. Maybe Tokitobashi won't work on Whis/Vados because they also have time control? It's certainly something I can see happening, but that's why I offered the alternate argument.

Second, how do we know Hit could kill Vados before she attempted to reverse time? We don't know Hit's full power yet.

Finally: how do you think Vados and Champa can defeat Hit? LOL
When was that ever confirmed?
Whis says himself "I'm surprised there's someone who can control time apart from me!" in ep 38.

Lol, agreed.

I just have it like this:

Whis/Vados
Beers/Champa
Super Saiyan Blue Goku/Vegeta/Hit/Golden Freeza
Super Saiyan Goku/Super Saiyan Vegeta/Magetta/Super Saiyan Cabba
Frost/Piccolo
Base Goku/Base Vegeta/Base Cabba/Freeza
Don't care

That's how I see it now.

Don't even care about anything else.

The manga confirmed that Frost is weaker than Frieza when Goku told Frost that he could become stronger by training.
